Klas and the beholder of art

“I suppose that’s the only thing that art implies. That you should engage.”

The scent of fresh wood is enough to get Klas to work. Planing wood until there’s nothing left, he takes time over his creations. Living and working in Karlstad, Klas sees the artist as a fairly unremarkable entity. It is the work that generates interest and it’s that spark of emotion and engagement that drives him back to his workshop.
